About THE KISSINGERS

Prepare yourself for the triumphant return of the immediate pop melody. THE KISSINGERS are here to expand the musical horizon. Their combination of angular new wave sensibilities wedded to pure unabashed guitar pop fun, has generated much critical acclaim since the release of their first EP, 2003s 'The Theme from Jetset'.
Having just completed their follow up 5 track EP 'Stars of Stage, Screen and Trampoline' with ARIA Award-winning producer Chris Thompson at the controls, they are primed to become a major force on the contemporary scene.
A refreshing burst of energy and invention, 'Stars of Stage, Screen and Trampoline' pushes THE KISSINGERS into a new arena. From the infectious pop of If You Want To, the trashy glamour of Brainy Stomper,to the psychedelic beauty of Beachball Party, THE KISSINGERS' music shimmers with catchy and dynamic tension.
A compelling live entity, their shows are truly celebratory affair.
